Cloverdale Library - Family History Show & Tell - 13 November 2010

You are invited to attend this upcoming event at the Cloverdale Library:Second Annual Family History Show and Tell!

Last year people who document their family history brought in their creations – there were family quilts, artfully done scrapbooks, storyboards, digital collages and much more. Join in this year and take whatever you’ve made to honour your ancestors. Perhaps you’ll find an excellent Christmas gift idea too.

You are welcome to share by describing your project or by just showcasing your wares. It might be something simple, something elaborate or even a work in progress. A laptop with the Internet and a projector will be available to demonstrate online projects such as family history websites or digital collections.

Visitors without projects are welcome and light refreshments will be available.

The Surrey Libraries' Canadian Family History Collection is housed at the Cloverdale Library. Located in the heart of Cloverdale, Surrey's historic town centre, this modern 10,000 sq. ft. two-storey facility is fully wheelchair accessible.

The Family History department, on the second floor, includes seven microfilm/fiche reader/printers, a photocopier, three dedicated computers for Ancestry Library Edition and Heritage Quest, a CD ROM station, and a general use meeting room for Family History programmes, including the Family History Show and Tell.
